I found 60/40 tin lead with rosin on Amazon for electrical projects. I was going to replace the entire coax but the top connection is two feet out of my reach. I told my wife I would just shimmy up the telescoping mast and she said heck no. Maybe I can budge it two feet down or maybe I can tie a ladder to the pole. I’ll start with the connector on the ground. Guess tying a ladder up in the air is not a good idea
